and you think you have technical knowledge? lol you don’t sound like that ‘’some some some some might maybe might some stuff like that’’ lol. that is not an answer.
as a player I seek stability. If a class have that without problem I should too. That is that simple.
While I have a point in this conversation which is seeking equal stablitiy on how skills responds on other classes, you are here just to call me angry kid..
you will be now ignored forever by me so don’t even bother spamming another answer if it is not related to fix of this situation. just don’t post your useless ‘’ some is like this and some is like that and sometimes that might be some some’’ based stuff to call people kid on this thread.
So ignoring others makes you more grown up? Yes, I have some technical knowledge in programming that goes back to around 10 years of experience and I believe to understand how some faults might happen.
That said I did not reverse engineer GW2 to track back such faults. Neither do I have the time noir the knowdlege to do so (which requires further time to get into it). But taking that aside I ’ll try to provide you with a basic example as to how different skills could look like and why some happen to work different then others.
The following examples aren ’t written in a specific syntax / language and don ’t actually work like this (they are actually simplified for a better understanding not written in a C / C++ style syntax like GW2 is probably using).
Example code:
function use_rocket_boots() {
// This disables you to move in another direction while this skill is active
freeze_movement();
// This is where the skill-animation will actuall be triggered - super simplified
do_some_skill_specific_things_like_jumping();
// When the player position in the client (= your PC) is not were the server expected it to be
if(get_client_position() != get_server_position()) {
//wait until you are where the server expects you to be
wait_until_synced();
} else {
//you will only be unfreezed if the server says its ok to unfreeze you
unfreeze_movement();
}
}
function use_whirlwind() {
// This disables you to move in another direction while this skill is active
freeze_movement();
// This is where the skill-animation will actuall be triggered - super simplified
do_some_skill_specific_things_like_throwing_kittens_arround();
//you will actually be unfreezed withouth any checks after everything has been done
unfreeze_movement();
}
…
The above example of use_rocket_boots shows how a unclever positioned check could actually prevent you from moving waiting for the server to repond before you ’re able to do anything at all (=~1s stuck).
use_whirlwind doesn’t wait for the server here but just does it purporse and lets you continue what you are doing withouth any delay. It ‘s optimized for speed. The actual checks do happen in other functions and don’t require the server and/or are much more performances wise optimized and implement caching or something simliar.
